Don’t want to brag, but I took my compulsory 2-week vacation in July. I’m having another week of vacation in the middle of August and I’m taking a whole month off in the middle of October when my second child is born (dad-vacation, in addition to the 18 months that the mom has as paid maternity leave). Oh and all of this is fully paid.
I’ve had about 6 or 7 weeks of paid vacation this year already. A week long winter vacation and 4 week summer vacation and random days off in the middle of the week every now and then. The good thing about christian culture even though almost no-one is religious here is that we still get a day off for their holidays.

That sounds really good, where do you work?
I’m guessing Norway, Finland, or Sweden.
Czechia and Slovakia have very similar paternity and maternity leaves.
Or France
Or Germany.

Which European country do you live in?
I don’t know which country he lives in but it could be Germany since I know that it’s like this in Germany.
Sounds very much like it. Paid leave for dads is what a few of my co-workers did.
I had a few days off in spring, recently had my 2 weeks and another coming in october.
Not much but it’s sufficient to me (but more is always better).
